RAHUL
The Financial Wizard

Rahul is a recognized entrepreneur heading companies worth hundreds of crores, but at heart, he’s a numbers man. He graduated from the Narsi Monjee Institute with an MBA in ’95 and cut his financial teeth working at the HDFC. His entrepreneurial spirit moved him to Kolkata where he set up Petrochemical Distribution. In 2007, Rahul established a steel plant in Durgapur – East India Holdings Pvt Ltd, which today has a capacity of 1.2 lac TPA and a turnover of over a hundred crore. But his heart lay in finance, and has fuelled that passion with a small Equity Brokerage firm in his free time.
